Not a ski you see every day. Didn't see him skiing so no idea if warranted or just a schoolboy ebay error

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

@under a new name, ...grief if they are not a deliberate choice it's going to be a fast, short ride to doom. Trying to put a turn in on these is always challlening, if the ski sniffs fear then you are a passenger....
Yves lent me his fis gs skis - 195, din at 12 - scared the living bajeesus out of me. Start off, bit worried, pointed vaguely down fall line - shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ttt - managed to get on the fronts, and then had a seriously fast, silky ride over evrything, at Mach 7.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@valais2, I ski on 201 FIS SuperGs a few times a year and I have skied DP Pros in a 193.
The DP Pros were significantly more challenging.

@under a new name, as challenging as trying to ski through the trees on those custom made super tankers you persuaded me to buy?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@zzz, much, much worse.
But you will admit I usually get it right.
Why did Völkl change the Mantras? I skied my old ones last weekend. I'd recommend them again.
The Blizzards are prett good though ...

@under a new name,
Funnily enough my favourite ski shop in Les Contamines was selling off a pair of DP Pros in 193 when I was there a couple of weeks ago. Lightly used, lovely condition, ex rental I think (!!!) for Euro 250 with bindings. I confess I stroked them and started rehearsing my excuses for turning up with another pair of skis then thought "when am I actually going to ski on these"

@jedster, I wonder of they were the 193s I tried out a few years ago that were for sale in Chamonix.
